That’s my plan, too wet to do anything but read a book and watch the box 😀

I got a letter with my appointment for my "third dose of the Covid 19 vaccine" when I went for the appointment every nurse said "you are here for the booster".

There were a lot of nurses along the queuing system!

Anyway, I had the Pfizer for the first 2 jabs, this time I was given Comirnaty. Only reaction has been a sore right wrist for a few hours.

Comirnaty is merely the new name for the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine: smithsonianmag.com/smart-ne...

Were you told you will get another one in 6 months?

I am really unsure what I got! Letter said "third dose", every nurse said "booster".

I had to go to another area and a doctor gave me the info. He said as immunity will be compromised because of steroids I would get two primary doses of Pfizer. One then and another in 6 months. I had astrazenica for both doses last time.

I too had mine yesterday - Pfizer booster after AZ. Arm felt achey when I woke thid morning, and I thought it was inflamed at the location of the jab, but when I looked at it in the mirror, there was nothing to be seen. So far no other reactions.

My arm was aching all day yesterday but eased when I took paracetamol, much easier today.
